Through the motions

Nothing’s such a thing ’til it happens
So I hold my tongue
Something so sweet stays out of reach
I’m going back and forth
Scheming for feelings abroad
I want it all
Everything happening at once
Then silence for months

Who said
Just go through the motions
Who said
They saw this coming
I did, when I was younger
I did, I’ve always known this

Dreaming of ways to feel new
I’d never lie to you
Missing what means more than life itself
My love my blood
Searching still from sunrise to dusk
Never ending
Reeling from living on the run
I’ll be back someday

Who said
Just go through the motions
Who said
They saw this coming
I did, when I was younger
I did, I’ve always known this

I'm sorry, that I’m off a bit
I'm just a little homesick
I'm sorry, that I’m off a bit
I'm just a little homesick

Who said
Just go through the motions
Who said
They saw this coming
I did, when I was younger
I did, I’ve always known this
